Fantastic hotel, overlooking the Gateway of India. Super 5 *. Used to stay there or Oberoi - Taj and Oberoi are the 2 best ones. Oberoi more for the business folks, Taj more for tourists.

Fair enough -for most parts.

It's just that I cannot associate members who love the hobby and are upstanding with members who speak of a 'non refundable' deposit.

That's just me, though....

The forum was always about fun, not 'non refundable' deposits.

Somewhere along the way, some self appointed guardians have decided the rules of transaction. And the cabal has decided what...

You are right ( checked the net). My apologies.

I think it was Benjamin + Russell = Benrus

So that told you that it was a non refundable deposit?

Bravo, he who bangs on about the spirit of the forum, and makes it a mission to go after anyone who takes his fancy. Well done

And where did you get this from, ?

So you made up the assertion that it was a non refundable deposit.

Oh my, speak of manners and personality from a potty mouth. My, my.

( incidentally, it is 'either/or, neither/nor. A grammar...

Really? Says who? Maybe in a commercial environment ( and even then, not always), but wasn't certainly on this forum. Indeed, here, deposits were more of a good faith to transact between friends....

where did you see - in the posts of the seller in this thread - that the buyer had offered a non refundable deposit?

And if you cant see what the seller has done wrong, you should consider giving...

Why wait for the sale to refund the deposit?

Indeed. What sort of a guy holds on to the deposit and then waits for a refund being asked?

Shit happens, and if you have to wait for the watch to be sold to refund the deposit, then there is a...

Never been there, except for the airport.

From what I have heard, a very boring place ( CVX, is it?)

Hotels are safe, if basic. Food is ok.

Travel is easy. I assume you will take a flight...

where? it is a pretty big country

Certainly not illegal, from Indian perspective.

However, from the little I know, there might be tax on the Indian entity, determined by ' arms length transaction value' ( it will be unbelievable...

I use 'Club 35' for all my film D&P ( and I use film, not digital). Absolutely fantastic, a pro D&P lab, with the whole range of service (including XPan D&P).

Marriot was grateful to you for rescuing them from the Indian police. Are you sure, it's not a storyline from one of your C Grade Bollywood potboilers from Ramsay Brothers Production.

I am a...

Ha ha ha ....name of the film is 'Don'. One of those meandering potboilers of the mid 70s, but a big hit. Saw the clip after ages. Thanks Possu

yeah, I have stayed in both the flagship Marriot in Juhu and the Renaissance in Powai and both have exemplary service, with everyone bending over backwards to help. Your story just does not make...

1. In most restaurants around the world, the menu on room service is different from the menu in the restaurant ( and nothing to do with 'Indian complexity'. Have you ever stayed in hotels anywhere...

Anything interesting, Neil.

I still have and cherish the Universal Geneve I got from you ( doubt you will remember it, its a gold case, auto)

Hope everything is fine with you and yours, Neil. Haven't seen one of your cupboard sales for a while.....

Thanks for that, though I have no interest in wasting time fiddling with IT objects.

Up to Neil to make his choice, I simply rely on the tech centre to sort out one off problem

Hi Neil, the exact same thing happened at our place - different provider. ( EE) 2 laptops and assorted equipments working fine, except one laptop decided to connect intermittently.

Called the...

Bose has both bluetooth and Wifi.

I just got 2, the biggest one and the smallest one.

Fantastic sound; and very easy to set up
